A man from Aslam tribe said: I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. A man from among his Companions came and said: Messenger of Allah! I have been stung last night, and I could not sleep till morning. He asked: What was that? He replied: A scorpion. He said: Oh, had you said in the evening: "I take refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He created," nothing would have harmed you, Allah willing.  

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لُدِغْتُ اللَّيْلَةَ فَلَمْ أَنَمْ حَتَّى أَصْبَحْتُ قَالَ مَاذَا قَالَ عَقْرَبٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ تَضُرَّكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ  

A man who was stung by a scorpion was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Had he said the word: "I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He created, "he would not have been stung, or he said, "It would not have harmed him."  

أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِلَدِيغٍ لَدَغَتْهُ عَقْرَبٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَوْ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يُلْدَغْ أَوْ لَمْ تَضُرَّهُ  

“A scorpion stung a man and he did not sleep all the night. It was said to the Prophet ﷺ: ‘So- and-so was stung by a scorpion and he did not sleep all the night.’ He said: ‘If he had said, last night: A’udhu bikalimatil-lahit-tammati min sharri ma khalaq (I seek refuge in the Perfect Words of Allah from the evil of that which He has created), the scorpion sting would not have harmed him, until morning.’”  

لَدَغَتْ عَقْرَبٌ رَجُلاً فَلَمْ يَنَمْ لَيْلَتَهُ فَقِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّ فُلاَنًا لَدَغَتْهُ عَقْرَبٌ فَلَمْ يَنَمْ لَيْلَتَهُ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَوْ قَالَ حِينَ أَمْسَى أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ مَا ضَرَّهُ لَدْغُ عَقْرَبٍ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ  

Yahya related to me from Malik from Suhayl ibn Abi Salih from his father from Abu Hurayra that a man of the Aslam tribe said, "I did not sleep last night." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "For what reason?" He said, "A scorpion bit me." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Had you said in the evening, 'I seek refuge with the complete words of Allah from the evil of what He has created, 'it would not have happened." Audhu bi kalimati'llahi't-tammati min sharri ma khalaq .  

فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَىِّ شَىْءٍ فَقَالَ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ تَضُرَّكَ  

[Machine] "I did not sleep tonight because a scorpion stung me. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If you had said in the evening, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created,' it would not have harmed you.'"  

مَا نِمْتُ هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةَ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَأَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ  

[Machine] A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allah, yesterday I was bitten by a scorpion." He said, "If you had said in the evening: 'A'udhu billahi minash shaytanir rajeem (I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed Satan) and Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful), it would not have harmed you."  

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا لَقِيتُ مِنْ عَقْرَبٍ لَدَغَتْنِي الْبَارِحَةَ ‍‍ فَقَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, if you were to say before you sleep, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created, it will not harm you, Allah willing."  

رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ « «أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ»  

[Machine] On the authority of Sulaiman bin Yasir and Busyr bin Sa'id, they said: A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "I was stung by a scorpion." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "If only you had said, when you reached the evening, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created,' it would not have harmed you."  

عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ وَبُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَا جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَا لَوْ أَنْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ  

[Machine] He informed him that he heard Abu Hurairah saying that a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said to him, "I was bitten by a scorpion." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "If you had said, when you reached the evening, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created,' it would not have harmed you."  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ أَتَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ  

[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "I have been stung by a scorpion." The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you had said, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created,' it would not have harmed you."  

أَتَى رَجُلٌ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّةِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرَّكَ  

[Machine] "Who is Allah's Messenger ﷺ ?", he asked. He replied, "A scorpion stung me." He said, "Indeed, if you say when you enter the evening, 'I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He has created, nothing will harm you, if Allah wills."  

لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ؟» قَالَ لَدَغَتْنِي عَقْرَبٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ قُلْتَ حِينَ أَمْسَيْتَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ لَمْ يَضُرُّكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ شَيْءٌ  

"أمَّا إنَّكَ لو قُلتَ- حين أَمْسَيتَ: أعوذ بكلمات اللهِ التَّامَّات من شَرِّ ما خَلَقَ لم تَضُرَّكَ".  

"أما إنَّك لو قُلت حين أمسيت: أعوذُ بِكلماتِ اللهِ التامَّاتِ كُلّهَا من شرِّ ما خلق، لم يَضُرَّكَ شيءٌ حتى تُصْبِح".  

"أما إِنَّهُ لو قَال حين أمْسَى: أعوذُ بكلماتِ الله التَّامّات من شرِّ ما خلق ما ضرَّه لَدْغُ عقربٍ حتَّى يصبحَ" .
